The word connects to my life because i am always muse. I always day dream or starr off into spance or something. I am never fully concentrated on anything. I do like the silence because it i calm and relaxing, but oo much of it and i will start thinking too much and start stressing out over things i don't need to worry about. Although I'm always thinking, sometimes i tend to overthink things and then mess up completely.

The word connects to the story Another Hideous Book Where the Mother Dies because during the book, the girl is always in a muse. She is always thinking about someone or something other then what she should actually be concentrated on. When she has to leave her friends and move to California, she wouldn't stop thinking about them. When her boyfriend cheated on her, she could not stop thinking about it. She would dwell on the past and not move forward. She was always in a muse.
